Abstract

A semiconductor apparatus may include a semiconductor chip, and the semiconductor chip may include a first pad, a second pad, and a bump. The first pad may be configured to receive a signal from an external device, and the second pad may include first and second metal layers electrically isolated from each other. The bump may be stacked over the second pad, and may be configured to receive a signal from a controller chip.
